📌 Why do so many organisations look and sound the same as time goes? And how can one entity stand out from the others when they are dealing with the same societal issues? Learn more booke me a skill-up masterclass session +throughMylens

#POV Anyway, there is a lot of copying and pasting within social sector space and a lack of authenticity. I once came across an organisation that cloned the mission of another organisation simply by changing the location of the organization's name, but the rest of the text remained the same.

I understand that many people want to start their own businesses or organisation, but emulating others blindly won't last long; instead, discover and follow your own real paths to addressing developing or current challenges.

📌 The question you should ask yourself, "What is your story?" What is your 'why', and how do you distinguish from the others?

Did you realise that in each industry you choose, the problem is significantly larger because no single company or organisation can solve everything? The solution is that via meaningful collaborations, we may expedite individual missions towards a common goal.

Aside from what we've seen in the past, there will be so many predicted and unexpected shifts that any entity that has structured itself to appear, feel, and be the same forever faces the prospect of becoming obsolete. We must continue to innovate, which is why a Research, Innovation, Development, and Partnership Unit (RIDPU) is required in any dynamic business or organisation.

In case you didn't know, here is a simple scan of the marketplace.

1. You will compete with other organisations for the funding sources.

2. Your programme description will sound the same, but the separator will be your WHY, the values and different unique strategies towards tackling emerging or existing problems.

3. Many will copy what you do, especially if it has a good track record but you will always take the lead if you understand your authentic WHY.
